Welcome to another edition of ChicagoRuby Downtown!
"Using Ruby to Provision Servers and Run Docker Containers"
SUMMARY:
I self host a lot of the tools I use. Running your own services keeps you data out of the hands of big companies and advertisers, but it comes at the expense of time an maintenance. In this presentation, I'll be talking about Bee2, a tool I wrote in Ruby that handles server provisioning, configuration (via Ansible) and building/running Docker containers. I'll discuss the challenges in interfacing with REST APIs and using docker containers.
